Forging Red Hot Steel Under Heavy Power Hammer #worker #process #forging #blacksmith #metalworking - Video

## 1. Task Introduction: Hot metal forging and core-punching process to shape industrial steel billets using an open-die power hammer.
## 2. Equipment and Materials: High-grade alloy steel billet heated to forging temperature, pneumatic power hammer, heavy-duty tongs, scale brushes, and cylindrical punching dies.
## 3. Task Procedure: 1. Heat steel billet until bright orange. 2. Remove surface scale using wire brushes. 3. Position billet upright on the anvil and align punching punch. 4. Apply controlled hammer blows to drive the punch. 5. Invert and extract forged billet safely.
## 4. Practical Tips and Precautions: Regularly clear oxide scale from dies to prevent surface flaws. Ensure continuous communication between tongs operators and the hammer operator to maintain precise center alignment.
## 5. Safety and Post-Management: Wear certified heat-resistant gloves, protective eye gear, and steel-toe boots. Store hot metal parts in designated cooling zones to prevent sudden thermal hazards.
## 6. Educational Purpose: This content is produced strictly for educational and technical demonstration purposes, showing safe industrial forging and hot metalworking practices in an authorized manufacturing environment.
